How do I trade DEX tokens?
1. Create or restore a DEX wallet
Open your OKX App, select Trade > DEX from the home page.
The system will automatically detect and prompt you to create or restore your DEX wallet.
Complete the authentication using Passkey (iOS 16+ or Android 7+ with Google services enable).

2. Select a token and trade
Go to Markets > DEX.
Search for the token you wish to buy, or look up newly launched meme coins using the Search bar.
Review the token details, risk rating, and live market data.
Enter the amount you'd like to buy, then confirm the trade details (including the fees and amount you'll receive).
Confirm the transaction using your Passkey, and the system will automatically complete it on the blockchain.
3. Check and manage your assets
Once the trade is completed, your tokens will be deposited into your DEX wallet.
Go to the Assets page to check your holdings and profit/loss, and manage them by selling or transferring at any time.
4. Emergency and escape (optional)
If you lose your device or cannot access your Passkey, you can use the wallet release feature to transfer your DEX assets to an Externally Owned Account (EOA) address under your control. After the transfer, your DEX trading account will become permanently inaccessible.
